Add new comment to Improved .QTZ Saving

Permalink

When we first save a QTZ file, it attempts to save itself inside the "session directory." This is an error.

not quite an error per se, but probably wrong or just bad practice :)

you're asked where to save the session file anyway, whether it's a zip/archive (*.qtz) or else, and of course it asks first to save on the current session directory.

that way, it's your call, not qtractor's.

however, there's this dangerous move when you explicitly do, for instance, a "Save As..." into the precise directory that happens to be the current session directory of an open zip/archived session file (.qtz)... yes, that extracted directory will probably vanish as soon as the session is closed later.

again it's your decision to do any of that, although the later could raise a warning message of some sort, something there isn't at the moment but could be in the near future, if you see fit ;)
